Chapter 675: Poisonous Miasma of Ghost Marsh

Li Hao only stayed in Yizhou for two days, then led his team to set out again and continued to the southwest. After passing Jiazhou (Leshan), there are three water flows in Jiazhou, namely the Qingyi River, the Minjiang River and the Dadu River. In the future world, the intersection of these three rivers is a major tourist attraction because there is the largest Buddha statue in the world. Yes, it is the Leshan Buddha.

Li Hao went to Leshan Giant Buddha in his previous life, and it was shocking. How could the big Buddha more than 70 meters high not be shocked? Now he is revisiting the old place, but there is no big Buddha. Li Hao feels very disappointed. Although he knows that the Buddha was carved in the Tang Dynasty, he doesn't know when it was in the Tang Dynasty. Now it is the early Tang Dynasty. I guess he has to wait for dozens or hundreds of years.

Li Hao crossed the river from Qingxi Pass and came south to Chongzhou. The Chongzhou Governor personally met him and said a lot of compliments to Li Hao. Li Hao felt that this person was a bit hypocritical and did not want to stay in Chongzhou for too long. He left Chongzhou the next day and continued on his way.

Li Hao was very unhappy all the way. He was unwilling to take on this chore, and the road was difficult to walk. He also had to watch Di Renjie and Sheng Guolan show their love along the way. In fact, it was a bit too much to say that they were showing their love. They just occasionally communicated with each other, or when they stopped to rest, Sheng Guolan took the initiative to send water to Di Renjie and wiped Di Renjie's sweat. Well, they were just showing their love.

Li Hao was like a lonely and widowed man, and could only watch resentfully from the side. From time to time, he picked up a branch and drew circles on the ground, muttering while painting: "Show your love, let's share quickly..."

After passing Kunming, we entered the place where barbarians lived, called Songwai Barbarians. Songwai Barbarians are not a clan, but a general term for many barbarians. Why are they called barbarians? Because they are relatively closed and do not interact with the Tang Dynasty, they are not civilized and have not been sinicized within the tribe. Therefore, the Tang Dynasty was called barbarians. Liuzhao was also barbarians before, but they often interacted with the Tang Dynasty and learned the Tang Dynasty culture, and then became civilized. They had already separated from barbarians and established kingdoms, so Nanzhao was much more advanced than barbarians.

The reason why Songwai Barbarians are closed is related to their geographical environment. Surrounded by mountains, the ground is really not three feet wide. It is surrounded by mountains, but the interior is low-lying. In addition, there is a lot of rain here, and the rainwater gathers and cannot dissipate, forming a large swamp, and no Tang people are willing to go.

The route Li Hao took was on the edge of Songwaiban. There were many mountains and the road conditions were very bad. After three days of traveling, it took Li Hao a hundred miles to travel. However, on the fourth day, something that made him even more collapsed came. After finally crossing a mountain, he saw a dark swamp ahead, reflecting light and endless swamp.

"Ah--" Li Hao was stunned for a moment after seeing the swamp, then went crazy and kicked a tree next to him, under his divine power, and was kicked and shaken, as if he was about to fall to the ground at any time, scaring the soldiers around him to dodge.

Di Renjie immediately stepped forward and looked at the endless swamp, and immediately frowned, looked at Li Hao, and said, "Prince, your map... doesn't seem to be very accurate."

Li Hao's mouth twitched, and he had nothing to say. He painted this map according to the terrain of the future world. It is said that it has changed the world. The place in southern Xinjiang cannot be used to speculate with common sense. Who knows what this swamp will become in more than a thousand years? Maybe it will dry up and a large amusement park or residential community will be built on it. This may be.

Seeing Li Hao's troublesome look, Di Renjie stopped fighting and sighed: "There is such a big swamp on the edge of Songwai Barbarians... Otherwise, let's ask Sheng Guolan."

Li Hao drooped his eyelids: "You go and ask, I want to be quiet."

Di Renjie was about to speak, but Li Hao said first: "Don't ask me who Jingjing is, I just want to be alone Jingjing."

Di Renjie had no choice but to turn back, and came to Sheng Guolan's horse and said, "Princess, there is a swamp in front of him, and the road is blocked. Do you know other roads?"

Sheng Guolan shook her head: "The other roads are far away. The swamp ahead is fine. You can go. When we went to Chang'an, we came from this Black Dragon Swamp."

"Come from the swamp?" Di Renjie was surprised when he heard this. Li Hao was not far from them. He also heard this and looked at Sheng Guolan in surprise.

Sheng Guolan nodded seriously and said, "Yes, from the swamp, the Black Dragon Swamp suddenly looked full of mud, but when you get closer, you will find that there is actually a place to walk. As long as everyone connects it with ropes, they can pass safely."

"It's like this." Li Hao took out his telescope and observed carefully at the Heilong Swamp for a while. Sure enough, he found that there was some white dry soil on the Heilong Swamp, which should be able to walk, but walking on it may be a bit dangerous. And if he chose a road and broke it halfway, it would be embarrassing, so it would be best if someone familiar with the route leads the way.

Li Hao put away his telescope, turned around and came to Sheng Guolan, and said, "Then can you lead the way for us?"

Sheng Guolan blushed when she heard this and said, "I don't remember how to go, but it doesn't matter. Duan Zhongyan and Tai Zongqing must have recognized the way."

Li Hao turned his head and looked at Duan Zhongyan and Tai Zongqing on both sides. Both of them nodded. Now, someone is leading the way.

So Li Hao ordered everyone to prepare, connect everyone with a long rope, then went down the mountain and headed towards the Heilong Swamp.

The ground gradually became wet, and they stepped into the Black Dragon Swamp, walking along the narrow dry roads, walking on the black swamp, and dragged four or five miles away, like a dragon winding around.

It was noon soon. Li Hao looked at the swamp that was still invisible and asked Tai Zongqing beside him, saying, "Can we get out of this ghost swamp today? I am so scared here that I won't have to spend the night on this swamp."

Tai Zongqing said: "At our speed, we should be able to walk out of the Black Dragon Swamp before sunset, but we will pass by Wuxian Ridge ahead, where there are many poisonous insects and there are often poison barriers in the woods, so we have to be careful. If we don't catch up, we are afraid that we will not be able to get out of the swamp today."

"What! There are also forests!" Li Hao was quite afraid of the forests here. People have weaknesses, and Li Hao also had weaknesses. He was afraid of snakes, poisonous insects, and some disgusting reptiles. He was afraid since he was a child, but now he is still afraid of the forests here. The forests here are warm and humid, and there are many poisonous snakes and venomous insects. Along the way, many soldiers were bitten by poisonous insects and venomous snakes. Fortunately, these Nanzhao people often prepared medicine to restrain these poisons, otherwise his five thousand elite soldiers would have lost nearly a thousand people. Sometimes he really wanted to burn these forests with a fire.

After walking forward for more than an hour, a large area of ​​lush forest appeared on the swamp ahead, extending all the way to the mountains not far away.

"We're at Wuxianling, please be careful!" Duan Zhongyan suddenly shouted, and Li Hao's heart tightened for no reason when he heard this. Why does the name Wuxianling feel a little familiar?

Soon, they entered the woods. Fortunately, they just passed by the edge of the woods. The probability of a poison barrier was not high, and the forest was not big, so they would probably be able to pass through it in half an hour.

Halfway through the journey, Li Hao suddenly felt something was wrong. Duan Zhongyan also noticed something was wrong and shouted loudly: "It seems that there is a poison obstacle, everyone speed up!"

"Damn it! Poison obstacle!" Li Hao was shocked when he heard this. This thing is terrible. It is basically equivalent to a biological weapon and cannot be defended.

The team accelerated, but Li Hao still watched helplessly as fog seemed to float around, and it became thicker and thicker. Then, Li Hao suddenly heard a sound from behind. When he turned around, he saw many people falling to the ground one after another, as if they were in a coma. Li Hao was stunned. He only heard that miasma caused a disease, so how could it make people feel unconscious?

Di Renjie was also shocked and looked at Li Hao: "Prince, what should I do if... this is it!"

"How did I know!" Li Hao screamed anxiously. He also felt a little dizzy and looked around in despair. He saw that the surroundings were covered with white fog, with a visibility of less than fifty meters and could not even tell the direction.

With a "puzzle", Di Renjie fainted on the ground. Because Li Hao and Di Renjie were connected by a rope, Di Renjie fell down and staggered Li Hao. At this moment, Li Hao was weak and was dragged to the ground. He wanted to get up, but found that he could not do it at all.

"What a terrible miasma!" Li Hao was shocked, but when he thought about it carefully, it was wrong. How could miasma still cause a coma? This is unscientific.

He turned to look at the team behind him, and everyone fell down, and many cattle and horses began to fall to the ground.

"It's over, it's over, I hope it's just a coma, and it's okay after the poisonous miasma. I hope so, I hope so..." Li Hao murmured in his heart, feeling his consciousness gradually blurred, and he also lay down to the ground.

"Crazy, crazy, crazy..." There was a sound of footsteps, and two figures walked out of the fog and happened to appear here in Li Hao.

Although Li Hao was about to fall into a coma at this moment, he was a little conscious. He wanted to open his eyes, but he couldn't open it. He only heard someone talking. He couldn't understand what he was saying, and it seemed to be a rude language.

"Damn... It turns out that someone is planning to plot against us. It's over. I'll say stay in Chang'an, why do you come to such a ghost place..." With this last thought, Li Hao finally fell asleep.
